[Lord Windos]

Both Cottonee and and Cherubi were encouraged to warm themselves on the flames after being assured that Shiva is nearby, before dinner will be served. If Ventus would decide to take a look at Shiva's emotional state, he'd find her in a delighted mood, yet tired out of the days happening. Not really in the mood to deal with anything significant today, and sadly no strong nor recovered from depressive episode enough to serve as a proper support for Nathan. Sorry for that...

As he was about to start the fire and get supper started (He briefly thought of catching a Pidgy, before shaking his head; he doubt that Nathan would react well to that revelation) , the pile of twigs and kindling burst into flames, causing him to back away in a startled panick! The researcher her a husky laugh, though, and turn to face Braixen and Shiva, with the former chuckling at the surprise he caused. Putting a hand over his chest to slow his beating heart down a tad, he just shook his head at him, a somewhat wry smile crossing his face. "I see that everyone is fine since my sojourn to that Honey Tree, and still enegetic enough to give me a scare. Well, I appreciate the help getting the fire started none of the less, even if I wish it didn't happen so....suddenly," Ventus said, letting out a small laugh himself, before they noticed that Shiva mood had made a turn for the better once more, judging by the spike of joy he senses.

"Well, do my senses deceive me, or do I detect that something has made you quite happy since my brief absence? Pray tell, do you mind sharing what caused such good cheer in you? Hmm...now that my mind is processing this development, I realize that you have a rather large amount of Psychic type Pokémon in your care. While you come from a family of breeder, and have that experience to draw upon caring for Pokémon, I have my own wealth of knowledge concerning the proper care of Psychic type Pokémon due to my own education and interactions with them. Would you care if I impart some of that wisdom to you, my dear friend? If anything, I have a Psychic of my own to care for now, so going over the details once more would be a great refresher for me as well!"

When Nathan came by later, the empath instantly picked up the emotional exhaustion and turmoil that was present in their mind, along with not an insignificant amount of worry. Instead of going to the boy's side and asking what is wrong with them, though, Ven decided to leave them alone for the time being, letting them enter the tent without any interruptions on his part. 'Haaaa....its best if I give him some space for now, rather than provoke him into an angry outburst from my nosiness, or worse, pilling on even more abuse on his taxed psyche if I rile him up by chance with my attempt to consul them. I want to help them, make them feel completely fine opening up to me, but the last time I tried that it nearly resulted in our friendship fracturing AGAIN. Sometimes, it better to do nothing and cause no harm, then to do something and possible screw everything to Kyurem's icy domain,' Ventus though, doing his best to disguise his own feeling about the situations. His sharp eyes did notice Kirlia glance at Shiva pensively, before they entered the tent. Hmm, perhaps if he can't do anything to soothe Nathan's worries, someone better equipped for the job could do so latter....
